The main level also includes a cozy sitting room and a formal dining room, each offering ample space for entertaining guests. The dining room is conveniently connected to the kitchen via a butler's pantry, enhancing the flow and functionality of the home.
The heart of this home is undoubtedly the bright and spacious kitchen, which boasts ceramic tile floors, upgraded granite countertops, and a center island with a gas cooktop. Double wall ovens make meal preparation a breeze, and the kitchen opens seamlessly into a living room with soaring cathedral ceilings. This inviting space is further enhanced by a gas fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the room with natural light. Adjacent to the kitchen, you'll find a charming homework nook with built-ins, perfect for school projects or home organization. The breakfast nook leads out to a private deck, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation, and sits atop the rear-loading two-car garage, surrounded by a serene backdrop of mature trees.

The expansive walk-in closet includes custom built-in storage to keep everything neatly organized. Down the hall, you'll find two additional bedrooms. One of these bedrooms was originally two separate rooms that have been combined to create an exceptionally spacious area. The shared hall bath includes a double vanity and a tub/shower combo, ensuring convenience for family and guests alike.
The lower level of this home is designed to accommodate a variety of needs, making it perfect for an in-law or au pair suite. With a private, separate entrance, this space includes a large living area centered around a bio-fuel fireplace.
